New Jim Butcher out: Dresden Files #15: Skin Game

Read it in May when it first came out. A great book!

The Dresden Files books are interesting in that they started off more like a pulp detective story, only with supernatural elements, but slowly took off as a major plot arc. Sometimes I wish Butcher would go back to the older style, but I am enjoying the plot arc.

Storm Front was a college writing project of Jim's. He cleaned it up quite a bit, and his agent suggested another title. Originally, it was called "Semiautomagic"

I like that he largely keeps to pulp detective elwments: the missing dame, the murder mystery, the caper and the "steal it back" scenario... it's just that the more powerful Harry gets, the bigger the movers and shakers are, and the bigger the stakes.

Five more books until the "big damn apocalyptic trilogy." Can't wait...
